Managed to get 6th row tix, at a discount of 10% somemore! Thanks to Ruilin~ I think next time dun bother her to buy tix liao, v ma fan and I also v paiseh. Hehe. Went to watch with Miao and her cousin (is her name Xin Hui?). Look at the stage, chandeliers! Reminds me of Phantom of the Opera. Haha.
If u ask me how's the concert, of cos I'll say it's nice, and it's totally different from the same-titled concert that I watched in HK back in 2006 (cept for the very-Spanish-arrangement of 过火 (Guo Huo)), so it's still worth my $135.
But still, it was not up to my expectations, because his voice cracked when he tried to hit a high note on 不要对他说 (Bu Yao Dui Ta Shuo)! BOOHOOOO! I think cos he's too old already... U can see the sad video here taken by a Youtuber quite far away from the stage:
And his hair was honestly, super ugly... Maggie mee fringe...
But ok, nonetheless the concert was still NICE! This is a nice montage by another Youtuber:
And I nearly melted when I hear him sing the starting of 我是真的爱你 (Wo Shi Zhen De Ai Ni) w/o any accompliment:
Not to mentioned the 1st time (in the whole world) his new songs surfaces:
牡丹优 Mu Dan You
逃生 Tao Sheng
My camera can't really catch bass well lah, so can't catch wat he's singing. Haha
Anyway for more vids, here's my playlist:
1 funny thing I saw...
This screen is somewhere above the 10th row from the stage, so actually ppl in the front 10 rows can see the screen by just turning their heads. And this words were shown when Jeff was supposed to sing Guo Huo, and before that "anyhow talk". Haha. And apparently the lyrics comes out for songs Jeff's not familiar with. And if u know the screen exists, u can see him looking up, trying to catch the lyrics on the screen, hehe.
Anyway, still 1 of my ever fav songs, 爱如潮水 (Ai Ru Chao Shui):
There's a 17-year-old temp staff (named Celestine) in my dept for the past 1-2 mths, and she dunno the existence of Jeff & has nv ever heard of 爱如潮水 before! Then I thought bout it, she shld be born in 1991, which means when this song came out in 1993, she was only 2 years old, haha. But then again, I can't rmb why I know this song cos I only started listening to Mandarin pop in 1996... But oh well, how can a ultra Jeff fan not know this song? Haha.
So excited! His new Mandarin album coming out in April, hoping for it to be a nice one, his prev Mandarin album was in Sept 06 loh! 18 mths ago!
Happy
Happy (belated) 24th bday to Steph!! Like I've said, 1 more year before we can be called mid-twenties. Hehe
